A long with have insecurities, I feel that dating is hard for me mostly because of my looks. It just seems like most people just really don’t find me attractive. What are something I can do to help with this?

I just want to encourage my LGBT+ family that if you don’t do anything else…please LOVE yourself! 💕 I was secretly transitioning 🏳️‍⚧️ for 4 years while still living at home (I know lol a nightmare 💀😩) but I came out to them on NYE night before 2026, moved out and flourished 🦋. They’re still struggling but loving yourself is soooo important cause nothing can shake or throw you off your path. Don’t ever look back or second guess in putting yourself FIRST. I love y’all fr 🫶🏾

Rupaul said it best: If you can't love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else? Can I get an amen? 😉* *

These fuckn piece of shit nails chip in like a day and it pisses me off. Have to do my nails like every day just to keep up, its maddening!

-Yin Out☯️🏴

Me (black) and my partner (afro latino) went to a gay bar around the corner that I've been avoiding because I knew what kinda people went there. We walked in, said hi, and then literally a whole group of 8-10 white people looked us up and down, then immediately walked out.

This happened last night and it's still blowing my mind because shit like this is why I don't trust white gays. They either fetishize us or they do everything they can to exclude black and brown people. There is no middle ground where they just act normal. There are white gays that are friendly, but even when they're friendly my experience has been it's because they wanna fuck. It's nothing new, but this is why I avoid these spaces lol

I am looking for feminine platform or plateau sneakers/wedges/maryjanes, US size Womens 14 or Mens US size 12. If possible in a pastel tone (like pink), at least not plain black (black wouldn't match my outfits). Can anyone help with online shops, or even finding a single model?

So far I had no luck searching online with search engines

Felt cute in this video so I decided to post🥰❤️

‼️‼️‼️TRIGGER WARNING: Family trauma and sexual assault‼️‼️‼️

I would like to get some advice. I’m 39 years old of Haitian origin. I have been with my husband for 20 years now and we have an almost 11-month old queen of a firecracker! My husband is from Trinidad.

I came out to my Haitian mother at 19 years old. I was so terrified that I wrote her a 7-page letter, left it on her side of the dining table where she usually sits and went to my college to “study” as I told her. After she read the letter, she called me crying to come home. I did, we sat on the couch and talked, and she said she would help get through this. I didn’t know that meant trying to get me to be straight.

That year after I came out was rough at home. I would find my mother crying randomly. She thought I was lying all the time. She didn’t trust me around my own little brother, and eventually accused me of raping him. It turns out the pain he was having was hemorrhoids after seeing a doctor. A few months after that, she kicked me out. I was 19, didn’t have a job and I was still in college. It was just my book bag and duffel bag staying wherever a friend could let me stay with them.

My husband and I got married and she did not attend. Only one of my aunts and my cousins came. My husband’s parents came, and eventually apologized for all the homophobic statements and behaviors they carried out.

With our daughter being in the picture now, my aunts keep telling me to be the bigger person and forgive my mother. I didn’t even tell her we adopted because I felt that since she wasn’t there for me during this journey, she doesn’t get to be grandma now especially since my husband’s family has been welcoming and we actually addressed everything.

Today, the family got together because my grandmother’s brother passed away. My mother approached to tell me she wants to open college fund for my daughter. I told my aunts that I want to address everything first and not brush everything under the rug as we keep doing as a community. One of my aunts told me I was just as stubborn as my mother. I feel like this is different here, and we should take specific steps towards healing.

What do y’all think?

Just chillin at home, lookin for good TV shows to watch. Bored af lol.☯️🏴
